items not commonly found in other booths at the Festival. He is partial to American gold coins and sterling silver but has a broad range of merchandise including unusual porcelain objects, fine crystal, exotic perfume bottles and small high end furniture. His rule of thumb is he doesn’t do “stuff.” He prides himself on the striking variety in his booth and claims to never have any “run of the mill” items. His inventory is reasonably priced ranging from $10 to a few hundred bucks and it’s all interesting to look at.
The format for the entire Summer Season will be the two day affair, Saturday and Sunday instead of the normal three day event during the regular season. The remaining Summer show dates will be September 3-4 and October 1-2 with a full day of setup for dealers on Friday 8:00AM to 7:00PM. The Puchsteins have lowered dealers’ booth rent for the Summer Season over the normal show fee. The popular “Early Buyers Admission” feature will be continued in the summer starting at 9:00AM on Saturday before the regular Show opening time of 10:00AM. Summer Show Early Buyers admission has been reduced to $10 and is good for both days of the Show. Adult daily admission $7.00, seniors $6.00 with a 1$ discount coupon for adult admission available on the website. Anyone under 16 is admitted free. There is no charge for parking at the Fairgrounds.
